I recieved an email claiming to be from Amazon to complete a survey & choose a gift and just pay for shipping. I chose Kiara Serum & understood I would pay a shipping fee of $4.95
I recieved the product & was charged $4.95 and $2.95
3 months later I noticed a charge of $98.41 on my credit card from this same company. I called them questioning the charges. I was told that I didn’t cancel within 14days and I was placed on a monthly auto ship. I explained that I never agreed to that. Nothing like that was disclosed to me otherwise I would not have placed the order. I asked for a refund and was told no refund would be given but, I could cancel at anytime. Before cancelling I was offered 60% off a year supply. When I didn’t agree I was then offered 80% off a yr supply of their product. Looking closer at my credit card charges I noticed I was charged $98.41 a total of 3 times. So, I was scammed for a total of $303.13

The ad appeared in email. Trial skin product- 3.95 plus shipping…NOTHING in ad stating that if i did NOT reply within 14 days they would be drafting 200.00 out of my acct. Then every month thereafter. Ofcourse i saw the 1st debit- and called immediately. They said i couldnt get refund because it sas 3 days late (17days). But they would be happy to dicount the monthly draft by 80%.
I did a little digging- it turns out, I -among hundreds of others has fallen into the same trap. Just want to see a bit of justice done for a change- I know its probably a long shot…however, they wont get by with it forever…says ms. Karma. Sincerely- Patiently Waiting.
